So fun to see some of the greatest actor's make flubs. Especially fun to see their reactions afterwards; everything from a snicker/bellylaugh, to a string of swear words and even a little jig. Very sweet to see them try again and again as they sweltered under the blazing lights (and no a/c) bringing to life characters for us all to enjoy.

I'm glad to have seen these, because we never did at the time they were made. However, I imagine these were a lot funnier when seen once each year on a belly full of champagne. Seeing one after the other got a little repetitious.

I think the exclamation of choice in 75+% of the bloopers was "god dammit." I got a little tired of hearing it.

It was interesting to notice which actors weren't amused when the other actor screwed up.

Priscilla Lane was too funny.

Having seen most of the films these out-takes are from, they are especially funny knowing the context. Having been an actor used to rehearsals to get this out of your system and to get your lines and character down correctly, I can see why film takes can get hairy. I'll take live theatre any day, especially doing drama. These are really fun. Too bad we don't have them from other studios. Enjoy.

It's common to see contemporary actors messing up via DVDs and TV, but how often do you see actors in the 30s doing it? I love these kinds of candid moments. I'm surprised to see so many of the women swearing. Watching Porky Pig say B*tch was the funniest thing in the world, though. I wish we had '43 '44 & '45. These are great!

These are great, especially the ones with Ronald Reagan. The future "Pres" could really cut-up. Very funny.

It's a relief to learn that many of my childhood heroes were human.
